After the morning introduction we went outside, straight into the snow. The weather forecast told us that it can be the only sunny day on this week - so it was really great fun being outside building words with tools like boards, skiing sticks, paint brushes, dippers, bottles and not to forget our fingers and hands.

We started some very short 5 minute test battles to get the spirit of the coming days. 'Throwing' and 'groundwork' were the words of today. The snow is really wet and heavy, but tomorrow we go up to the mountain and hope to find more powder like snow there.
